RadioOnFire.com - The Baltimore Ravens turbulent year isn’t over just yet. Their senior security director and a former Baltimore police homicide detective, Darren Sanders was charged Tuesday night with a sex offense and is due in court in February, according to court records.
via ESPN:
Online court records for Baltimore City District Court on Tuesday night showed Darren Sanders was charged with fourth-degree sexual offense, related to an incident that occurred Dec. 14.
The summons issued Tuesday lists Sanders’ address as that of the Ravens’ team headquarters in Owings Mills, Maryland. The record shows a hearing in the case is scheduled for Feb. 9.
The record did not give more specifics on the charge or other details about the case. The offense is a misdemeanor and punishable by a maximum $1,000 fine and/or a year in jail.
Sanders’ lawyer, Andrew Alperstein, told the Baltimore Sun the charges were “totally fabricated, made up.”
You may or not remember that Sanders was involved in the Ray Rice incident earlier this year. Sanders was apart of the controversy over whether or not the Ravens obtained security footage of Rice knocking out his then-fiancee Janay Palmer in an elevator in an Atlantic City Casino. Sanders maintained that the casino would not provide him with the footage but the officer instead described in detail what was on the video. He also said Rice told him that he had slapped Palmer, but denied punching her. Sanders then relayed the information to team executives but it remains unclear if he spoke with Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti and just how much the Ravens knew before the tape hit the media.
